Firing responsible employees who use cannabis (marijuana) after work when they could drink whiskey is discrimination, plain and simple. It's getting more difficult to legally discriminate against one another and although it's historically challenging to break discriminatory habits, this one needs to go. Approving after hours employees to drink beer, wine and whiskey and show up for work the next day but disallowing cannabis is insane. It's not legitimately based on science or morality, and intelligent people know it. Stan White Dillon, Colorado - --- MAP posted-by: Matt
